OVERVIEW: FAIRPLAY (2) is a talented colt, which won at his first two attempts prior to enduring a tough run and finishing unplaced in the Breeders Crown Final. He finished second in the Youthful Stakes behind Hesitate last outing and is a good chance of leading throughout under these conditions. SOHO THE REAL DEAL (1) finished unplaced in the Super Series Final at his latest attempt in September. He hasn’t been to the trials but he is a smart pacer and is drawn to receive every chance so he must be considered as a winning chance. RONNIE THE HAMMER (3) led out then took cover when second in the Homegrown Classic last outing. He is building up a handy record and has the speed to figure in the finish. BUSINESS IN HEAVEN (7) is a smart New South Wales trained pacer, which recorded fast time in winning the Breeders Plate at his latest attempt. He was placed in the Western Region Final prior and should be competitive again despite the wide draw. EARLY SPEED: 2 (likely leader), 1,3 RATINGS: 2/ 1,3/ 7/ 5/ 4,6

OVERVIEW: FAIRPLAY (2) is a talented colt, which won at his first two attempts prior to enduring a tough run and finishing unplaced in the Breeders Crown Final. He finished second in the Youthful Stakes behind Hesitate last outing and is a good chance of leading throughout under these conditions. SOHO THE REAL DEAL (1) finished unplaced in the Super Series Final at his latest attempt in September. He hasn’t been to the trials but he is a smart pacer and is drawn to receive every chance so he must be considered as a winning chance. RONNIE THE HAMMER (3) led out then took cover when second in the Homegrown Classic last outing. He is building up a handy record and has the speed to figure in the finish. BUSINESS IN HEAVEN (7) is a smart New South Wales trained pacer, which recorded fast time in winning the Breeders Plate at his latest attempt. He was placed in the Western Region Final prior and should be competitive again despite the wide draw. EARLY SPEED: 2 (likely leader), 1,3 RATINGS: 2/ 1,3/ 7/ 5/ 4,6
